We study emph{edge-sum distinguishing labeling}, a type of labeling recently introduced by Tuza in [Zs. Tuza, textit{Electronic Notes in Discrete Mathematics} 60, (2017), 61-68] in context of labeling games. An emph{ESD labeling} of an $n$-vertex graph $G$ is an injective mapping of integers $1$ to $l$ to its vertices such that for every edge, the sum of the integers on its endpoints is unique. If $l$ equals to $n$, we speak about a emph{canonical ESD labeling}. We focus primarily on structural properties of this labeling and show for several classes of graphs if they have or do not have a canonical ESD labeling. As an application we show some implications of these results for games based on ESD labeling. We also observe that ESD labeling is closely connected to the well-known notion of emph{magic} and emph{antimagic} labelings, to the emph{Sidon sequences} and to emph{harmonious labelings}.

Soon after his 1964 seminal paper on edge colouring, Vizing asked the following question: can an optimal edge colouring be reached from any given proper edge colouring through a series of Kempe changes? We answer this question in the affirmative for triangle-free graphs.
A proper edge-coloring of a graph $G$ with colors $1,ldots,t$ is called an emph{interval cyclic $t$-coloring} if all colors are used, and the edges incident to each vertex $vin V(G)$ are colored by $d_{G}(v)$ consecutive colors modulo $t$, where $d_{G}(v)$ is the degree of a vertex $v$ in $G$. A graph $G$ is emph{interval cyclically colorable} if it has an interval cyclic $t$-coloring for some positive integer $t$. The set of all interval cyclically colorable graphs is denoted by $mathfrak{N}_{c}$. For a graph $Gin mathfrak{N}_{c}$, the least and the greatest values of $t$ for which it has an interval cyclic $t$-coloring are denoted by $w_{c}(G)$ and $W_{c}(G)$, respectively. In this paper we investigate some properties of interval cyclic colorings. In particular, we prove that if $G$ is a triangle-free graph with at least two vertices and $Gin mathfrak{N}_{c}$, then $W_{c}(G)leq vert V(G)vert +Delta(G)-2$. We also obtain bounds on $w_{c}(G)$ and $W_{c}(G)$ for various classes of graphs. Finally, we give some methods for constructing of interval cyclically non-colorable graphs.
In 1990, Alon and Kleitman proposed an argument for the sum-free subset problem: every set of n nonzero elements of a finite Abelian group contains a sum-free subset A of size |A|>frac{2}{7}n. In this note, we show that the argument confused two different randomness. It applies only to the finite Abelian group G = (Z/pZ)^s where p is a prime. For the general case, the problem remains open.
An edge-coloring of a graph $G$ with consecutive integers $c_{1},ldots,c_{t}$ is called an emph{interval $t$-coloring} if all colors are used, and the colors of edges incident to any vertex of $G$ are distinct and form an interval of integers. A graph $G$ is interval colorable if it has an interval $t$-coloring for some positive integer $t$. The set of all interval colorable graphs is denoted by $mathfrak{N}$. In 2004, Giaro and Kubale showed that if $G,Hin mathfrak{N}$, then the Cartesian product of these graphs belongs to $mathfrak{N}$. In the same year they formulated a similar problem for the composition of graphs as an open problem. Later, in 2009, the first author showed that if $G,Hin mathfrak{N}$ and $H$ is a regular graph, then $G[H]in mathfrak{N}$. In this paper, we prove that if $Gin mathfrak{N}$ and $H$ has an interval coloring of a special type, then $G[H]in mathfrak{N}$. Moreover, we show that all regular graphs, complete bipartite graphs and trees have such a special interval coloring. In particular, this implies that if $Gin mathfrak{N}$ and $T$ is a tree, then $G[T]in mathfrak{N}$.
As a fundamental research object, the minimum edge dominating set (MEDS) problem is of both theoretical and practical interest. However, determining the size of a MEDS and the number of all MEDSs in a general graph is NP-hard, and it thus makes sense to find special graphs for which the MEDS problem can be exactly solved. In this paper, we study analytically the MEDS problem in the pseudofractal scale-free web and the Sierpinski gasket with the same number of vertices and edges. For both graphs, we obtain exact expressions for the edge domination number, as well as recursive solutions to the number of distinct MEDSs. In the pseudofractal scale-free web, the edge domination number is one-ninth of the number of edges, which is three-fifths of the edge domination number of the Sierpinski gasket. Moreover, the number of all MEDSs in the pseudofractal scale-free web is also less than that corresponding to the Sierpinski gasket. We argue that the difference of the size and number of MEDSs between the two studied graphs lies in the scale-free topology.
